An attempt to make an opensource VarAC.

still very much work in progress atm and i've yet to make a contact on it yet, appears to be me and someone else in Portugal trying it on CB (27.195)
doesn't help with 11m being poor atm and i only have a 1/4 wave boomerang.

it hasn't been tested on 11m yet would be handy for others to try it.

Seems interesting

Martin in Austria was running it to Portugal on 27.265 usb
photos on Js8call 11 meters page...
we seem to have given up on Vara chat... 195 usb but it worked well enough... big skip becoming a prob some what on mid block

originally it was on 27.245 so i could monitor js8call at the same time then someone else suggested it be separate so 27.265 was added.
